Whether you actually play MUGEN / IKEMEN or just prefer to WATCH it, what characters stand out the most to you as MUST HAVES in your roster(s)?

 

1. CustomTetsuExtreme (by XCB, modified by iloveflash)

First off, I always thought Tetsu was a cool shotoclone, and XCB did an incredible job recreating him for MUGEN. That said, his AI was a lame duck, but fortunately iloveflash gave him a properly challenging AI and some move enchancements. Now this is the ONLY character that I actually play in MUGEN when I do actually play... which is very rarely.

 

2. Illusion Trainer (by Ark, modified by Hyde233)

So, one thing you'll come to notice about me is that I love characters that have extra functionality and gimmicks. For this special entry, he has a built-in cheat menu, that allows the character to modify all of their stats, strengths, resistances, and more. SADLY, it isn't as cool as I'd like it to be, where it just cheats constantly to prevent from being harmed, but hey... there is potential to make the AI into an absolute nightmare to fight. Imagine a character that can interrupt the match constantly, pull up a cheat menu, and make themselves invulnerable to attacks at the first sign of them being used. Like... you fire a projectile, and before it hits them, the AI pulls up their cheat menu, and makes it so they cannot be hit by projectiles, wouldn't that be cool?

 

3. SEVEN (by SEVEN)

There aren't many Makoto edits I like, but this one holds a special place in my heart. I just wish her AI was brutal, but all and all, she is one of the coolest edits. Essentially, she's like if you fused Hyper Beast (by Cerenas) with Makoto. She really is one of the best edits of Makoto out there, so mad respect to SEVEN, they did a fantastic job at making her a mainstay in my roster.

 

4. All of KAZ's characters

Look... I'm not gonna lie, I am a KAZ fanboy. I love the fact that all of his characters have a challenging (but not cheap) AI, while also having a built-in anti-cheap, and also every character has special intros with other characters depending on their name. Like, there is just an ABSURD amount of effort put into his characters, the dude was way ahead of his time, wish I could have met him to personally thank him for making such beautiful creations.

 

5. LAYER Testing Characters

Characters such as Infinite SoulAbyss (by Rin & Luli), Undefined Universe (by Minase & Nothing2Lose), Spacial Rift (by SL Zero), Dynamic://Parallax (by Minase), and 9470bb12e8a4f34476 (by Minase) are all some of the most FASCINATING characters ever. Watching them absolutely break and dismantle characters is beyond appealing, especially when breaking those characters causes strange things to happen. I dunno what it is, but it is addicting to watch characters completely fall apart when another character forcibly modifies them. Kind of wish they'd make one that does NOT kill the opponent, but does break them.
